"Faith, acts promptly and boldly on the occasion, on slender evidence."
It's comforting to choose a path that seems well-lit and predictable. But, once in a while, we seem to know with inexplicable confidence that it's time to take a risk.
Moving in faith takes a joyful heart and willingness to surrender perfectionism. Those leaps, both big and small, bring us to a new level of living, thinking and loving.

Healing

“Nobody gets healed.
Nobody heals anybody else.

Healing does
not happen in time. Healing is already present, in the midst of everything you
are trying to heal yourself from, just as the ocean is already present in and
as every wave.

A wave is healed even in its failed attempt to reach the ocean.
Beyond the story, you are already healed. And you just forget, sometimes, which
is part of the healing too.”

This concept may be true;
this is where teaching of
non-duality loses most of the masses.

For those suffering, and in that moment
they are very much believing that which results in suffering, the idea that
no-one gets healed could really contribute to more suffering.

Goodness
gracious...the mind could go to a place of much hopelessness if it
misinterpreted "no-body gets healed".

And look at your own
experience...before and after seeing what it so...the appearance of healing may
have actually happened at some level for you

And for those that have experience
a shift from believing a painful story, to no longer believing it, healing is a
very good word to describe that...going from a fragmented mind to wholeness
often feels good and healing is a good word to describe it.
I know we are
talking about two different things...nonetheless...my two cents!

When you believe you need to be healed, it assumes that
something is out of place, or something is wrong.

This causes suffering and
fear. Healing/wholeness come by noticing, nothing is missing.

The truth is paradoxical and this hold true for the idea of
healing--healing is the recognition that there is nothing to heal because there
has never been anything else.

This does seem to show forth as what appears as
"healed" conditions or circumstances however.

The blind literally do
see, the broken hearted are mended, etc., but nothing has actually changed; the
truth that always was is simply revealed in perception.

As a "healer"
the whole of the work is to know or be aware of the fact that there is never
anything to heal.

The way it happens here is that there is a continual habit
of the attention to contract, which is to turn back in on the separate self,
the persona.

That habit can be broken, or the letting go of that
contraction can be happening quickly and without noticing perhaps.

A relaxing
of the body and emotions, a resting in that space of the always present healed.
